Thank you for purchasing this Digital Postal Scale. With normal care
and proper treatment, it will provide you with years of reliable service.
Please read all operating instructions carefully before using the scale.
• Avoid any exposure to extreme heat or cold. Your scale will work
better when operating in normal room temperature. Always allow the
scale to acclimate to normal room temperature for at least an hour
before use.
• Give the scale sufcient warm up time before use. Usually 30 to 60
seconds to give the internal components time to stabilize.
• Keep your scale in a clean environment. Dust, dirt, moisture, vibra-
tion, air currents, or a close proximity to other electronic equipment can
cause an adverse effect on the reliability and accuracy of your scale.
• Handle with care. Gently apply all items to be weighed onto the
weighing surface. Although this scale is designed to be quite durable,
avoid rough treatment as this may permanently damage the internal
sensor.
• Do not shake, drop, or otherwise shock the scale. This is a precision
instrument and must be handled with extreme care.
• Only operate the scale on a stable, vibration free surface.
• Always store in a dry place to avoid moisture accumulation on
internal components.

I. Operation
1. Place the scale on a level surface and press down on the
front panel near the “ON/OFF” lettering to turn the scale on.
2. Wait 2 seconds for the display to show “0”, then gently apply
all item(s) to be weighed onto the weighing platform.

II. Tare Weighing.

Note: When all weight is removed from the scale, the tared
value of a container will be displayed as a negative value.
Press the tare button again to return scale to zero.
III. Batteries
This scale comes with a 9V Alkaline Battery and a 110V AC
adapter.
Note: Batteries must not be disposed of as household waste.
Contact your local authority for info on battery disposal.

IV. Troubleshooting
The primary reason for inaccuracy or malfunction are low bat-
teries, overload or operating on an unstable surface. Please

erly. This scale is a precision instrument and must be handled
with care.
